Severity: wishlist
As described at
http://yeupou.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/having-homemade-aliases-functions-and-such-available-to-every-interactive-shells/
I find frustrating to be unable by default to add local shell
aliases/functions to be automatically sourced for any interactive bash shell.
This mechanism exists for *login* interactive shells (/etc/profile.d) and is
actually even used by bash-completion. I found no conclusive reason not to
provide similar possibility for non-login shells that are probably the most
common on a X session through xterms.
Reading bug #275623, I doubt that any change in this regard will occurs on
base-files.
I think it would be really nice to be forced to edit by hand /etc/bash.bashrc
to achieve the simple addition of local functions/aliases/etc.
It's a no-go to edit /etc/skel/, as far I understand that won't make for
site-wide functions/aliases but copied-once files that will easily get outdated.
It's also a no-go to botch /etc/profile supposed behavior (run-once at login
only) to get it called by /etc/bash.bashrc.
